Subject: x2apic: Clean up send_IPI_mask_x2apic() and add a memory barrier.
X-Git-Tag: archive/raspbian/4.8.0-1+rpi1~1^2~14101^2~26
X-Git-Url: https://dgit.raspbian.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=944e533ffb53ce4a11ee59603e315d7644b3a0c7;p=xen.git

x2apic: Clean up send_IPI_mask_x2apic() and add a memory barrier.

The barrier is required to prevent the WRMSR from executing before the
processor has written synchronising data to be received by remote
CPUs.

At the same time remove needless wmb() from on_selected_cpus(). We now
assume send_IPI_mask() is a sufficient compiler and CPU memory
barrier.
